Who Is Malus Thorm?
By using context clues throughout Act 2, you may learn that Malus Thorm is actually Ketheric Thorm’s uncle. He was the head surgeon at the House of Healing in life and was a very devoted follower of Shar (interesting since Isobel is a Selunite and Ketheric used to be). It turns out, Malus would only allow Sharran Dark Justiciars to be healed in the House of Healing. If someone else came, he would experiment on them.
